Geez, Louise you guys. I was making a playful, friendly, and, I thought, amusing comment. You're turning it all creepy.

Duality is an idea. A way of looking at things. It's human. It's mental. It's not a physical fact. It can't be proven or even observed. Show me a pict...

I first read about arsenic being used as a recreational drug in "Rose" by Martin Cruz Smith. Pretty good book. Smith wrote "Gorky Park" which is wonde...

I went back and checked every @"TimeLine" post since the forum started. Nowhere, nowhere, does she explicitly say she is not a horse.

Thanks. I'll go look it up. Similar subject - I don't care much about TV, but I am looking forward to Amazon's "Jack Ryan." I hope it's good. I like J...

Animaniacs started in 1993, when I was 42 years old. Also, you should be careful about that age discrimination thing. Some of us are pretty sensitive.

If you're not patient, don't start it. On the other hand, if you like LOTR, you must be patient. And thank you for your comment on my review..
